Langrisser I & II Review

Langrisser was once a beloved franchise from studio Career Soft, and the original title was localized on the Sega Genesis under the title Warsong. The 1991 western release also came with many drastic changes, from character portraits along with many translation changes. The series was renowned for its tactical elements and was even known to be one of Fire Emblem's biggest rivals during its prime. Fast forward to today, the series has been nearly forgotten and has faded into obscurity.

However, along with a recent release of a mobile game, we also got ourselves a new remake of the original games by Chara-ani and Kadokawa Games titled Langrisser I & II. Due to the first two Langrisser games being very similar in gameplay, the series often release the two games bundled together in ports back in the day.

Langrisser I & II is like a studio adding color to a classic Hollywood movie from the golden age. It's not necessarily better now than it was, but a touch up might make it more appealing to some. In the end, the remakes of the first two Langrisser games don't quite add anything to make them automatically better than their original counterparts - it's more just a different take on the original games. It's not a really high effort remake, but since the first Langrisser games are already good, it would've taken a lot of effort to make the games really awful.

Score: 7/10
